Sometimes I get an urge to make some GURPS content, be it something original, or something converted from another system/media. Maybe if I post it here, it will be useful not only to me. Keep in mind that I'm not a native English speaker and please forgive any mistakes.

Monster: Blue Slaad

Monster: Blue Slaad

The blue slaad is bigger than the red one, has very long talons, and can spead slaad fever to produce more red or green slaadi.

Slaad Fever:
A blue slaad that deals injury with a bite attack has a chance of infecting the
victim with magical slaad fever. The affected creature must make a successful
HT-3 roll to avoid infection. The disease incubates for one day, then the victim
takes 1d toxic damage each hour for 13 cycles. Each cycle allows an additional
HT-3 roll that prevents any further damage and heals the disease. Once the victim
loses 1/2 of their HP to this effect, they begin experiencing a -2 penalty to DX
until they heal above that threshold. Once the host loses 2/3 of their HP to
this effect, they begin experiencing a -4 penalty to DX until they heal above
that threshold. The disease can be cured with a Cure Disease spell cast at a -3 penalty. If the victim
dies to this effect, they are immediately transformed into a red slaad. It
retains none of the features, traits, memories, or abilities of its former
self, and is a normal red slaad in all respects. If the infected being is an arcane
spellcaster, the disease instead produces a green slaad.
